Steady Expansion

State Treasurer Ken Miller says it's been five years since the end of the Great Recession, and gross receipts to the state treasury are higher than ever before. He says gross receipts for Fiscal Year 2014 totaled $11.7 billion, up four percent from FY-13. He says the state's economy has recovered quite well. "In fact, collections have been higher than the same month of the prior year in 45 of the past 51 months, which indicates a steady economic expansion," he said.
